Light whistling...640D

Just looking around for potential answers it has already been in once, but found no direct issue (bar the fact my front tyres are wearing on the outside edge and slightly feathering it is in for a KDS on Wednesday).

is a light whistling (and when I mean light and i mean really light and you struggle to hear it) over 30mph to the legal UK limit ...tried brakes nothing there stuck etc., wheel bearings nothing rumbling or unduly warmer than the other side etc.

Naturally as said above BMW can find nothing wrong with it at the moment.

Are you sure this is not coming from the turbo?

Good suggestion. OP, does the whistling alter in pitch/frequency with engine RPM?
If so, it could be the turbo and that's normal.

Down to tyres, my front has a slight heel and toe on the front passenger side shoulder block - dealership did a KDS badly and have now been told in no uncertain terms to sort properly on Monday with me standing over them - mad.
